Description
Ragnaud Sabourin 1990 Vintage Cognac: a Grande Champagne Summer
The result of a sunshine-drenched year, the Ragnaud Sabourin 1990 Vintage Millesime Cognac has been produced entirely from Grande Champagne Ugni Blanc grapes and matured for at least two decades. Like all Cognacs from this esteemed house, the grapes for this expression were sourced from the Domaine de la Voute vineyard, making it a single estate bottling. The hot dry summer of 1990 resulted in a welcome second crop which helped replace the earlier affected vines. With excellent sugar and acidity levels, the resulting wine was ideal for creating flavorsome eaux-de-vie with outstanding harmony and structure.
The Ragnaud-Sabourin estate was founded in 1850 by Gaston Briand and his son-in-law Marcel Ragnaud. Today, Annie Ragnaud-Sabourin and her son Olivier carry on the family expertise, focusing exclusively on eaux-de-vie produced from their own vines. Sitting on a hill outside the village of Ambleville in the south of Grande Champagne, this wonderful estate may be small, but it is also one of the most prominent houses in Cognac, selling fine eaux-de-vie to a range of larger companies. However, they always make sure to keep the majority for themselves, which is why the House of Ragnaud-Sabourin boasts unusually large stocks of old Cognac - some of which predate the phylloxera epidemic. As a result, they are able to offer a wide selection of high-end releases.
Few houses dedicate themselves to such a long-term view on their production, but the Ragnaud-Sabourin family know how to plan ahead. The present stocks kept in their cellars represent around fifteen years of future sales - a long-term investment, but always worth the wait.
Presentation of the Bottle
The Ragnaud Sabourin 1990 Vintage Millesime Cognac comes in a classically elegant slim bottle featuring a simple label, deep purple foil and a wire cage wrapped around the cork stopper.
How to Enjoy
Take the time to leave this Cognac to rest in your glass before tasting it, and prepare yourself for the moment when you take the first sip. For the best tasting experience, serve at room temperature, or slightly chilled, in a tulip glass.
